When you quit smoking, do you cough up a lot of mucus? -
I quit smoking weed and cigs and now im coughing a lot of mucus....is that normal? has any one else experienced this?
Well congratulations on your quiting smoking weed and cigs! Though I wouldn-t take any chances with self-diagnosing when it comes to coughing up mucus. Perhaps your lungs are clearing itself out or there really is another health issue. Please do talk with your physician asap.
If it-s ok, I-d like to also post a couple of websites that may help to give you some emotional support and inspiration in your stopping the use of marijuana and nicotine.
You DO that, because your system is trying to get rid of all the remnants of the smoking. Your body is Spring cleaning, so to speak. Just keep spitting it out, and it will stop, soon. Drink lots of orange juice, as it is like scrubbing bubbles inside your body. The orange juice really will scrub you clean inside. Drink lots of water, help with this cleaning. If you JUST quite, stay clear of sweets, coffee, tea, and meat. Just for the time being, this will really help your body get cleaned up, and will make the temptation MUCH less to smoke anything. If you REALLY get an urge to smoke, jump into the shower, and it is pretty hard to smoke UNDER a constant flow of water. Good Luck, GOOD choice!
I quit smoking cigs for 6 weeks now. I smoked for almost 20 years. I feel great, but I do every once in awhile cough up some mucus. I suppose that years of putting toxins in, it is only reasonable that some are going to come out.... keep it up. It is difficult sometimes...
